With the 2024 NFL Draft looming, prospect visits continue to roll in for the New Orleans Saints. You can add an intriguing tight end to their list now. 

Tight end is actually a pretty sizable need for New Orleans. Although if they do not take Brock Bowers in round one, day three is their best option to take a TE in this year's class. 

The Saints are hosting Iowa TE Erick All on a top 30 visit, according to John Hendrix

All has played in just ten games over the past two seasons for the Hawkeyes due to injuries. That may explain why the Saints, along with a handful of other teams, are using a top 30 visit on him. They all want to see his medicals. 

He's an impressive athlete at TE when healthy, though, and his receiving abilities are among the top in the class at his position. All is a smooth mover at 6'4 and 252 pounds. The former Hawkeye is expected to go sometime on day three of the draft, most likely before round seven. 

All spent the bulk of his college career with Jim Harbaugh and the Michigan Wolverines. He only played his final collegiate season with Iowa. That being said, Iowa has been a factory for top tight ends in the pros. 

T.J. Hockenson, George Kittle, and Sam LaPorta all attended Iowa. It's clearly a school who knows great talent at that position on offense. 

As for All in New Orleans, he would compete with Juwan Johnson and Taysom Hill for targets at TE. Hill's usage is unique, but he's spent plenty of time at TE over the past couple years.
